Hello, welcome to The Infinite Subway.
You are on a train where every carriage is in a different time period or universe. We don't know how this happened, just go along with it.
Your objective is to reach the end of the train to turn off the engine so you can get off at your stop. The passengers will need your help, and they will either become your ally or enemy. Choose wisely, they will either help or hinder you. Along the way you will learn the meaning of the Universe.
Do you accept the challenge?
[[Yes, proceed to the train]]
[[No, leave the train]]
Which train would you like to enter first?
[[Victorian Garden party]]
[[Dinosaur Carriage]]Well done, you chose the lazy ending.
Now let's actually start the game.
[[Yes, proceed to the train]] In a fair Victorian Garden where we set our scene, you must present the Victorians with crumpets.
Barbara, a purple cat with a dazzling style, holds a crumpet-shaped key. You and Barbara need the key to progress to the next carriage.
They inform you that you must perform a dance routine.
[[Another passenger teaches you to dance]]As soon as you enter the carriage, you look down and see yourself standing on top of a Triceratops with a top hat. The Triceratops suddenly starts to run.
Do you
[[Stay on it]]
[[Or jump off it]]The Triceratops comes to a sudden stop!
You look around trying to see why it stopped. You find something purple aggressively shaking her arm at you.
Do you
[[Approach her]]
[[Or do you run away]]You decide to jump off, but then end up getting stuck on the tail of the Triceratops. You have to stay on until it stops or you get help. So you end up making your way back on top of the head and enjoying the ride.
[[Stay on it]] You walk up to a bottle with wings that has something purple inside of it.
The purple thing introduces herself in a muffled tone because she is inside the bottle,
"Hello, my name is Karen, can you help me? In return, I will help you..."
Will you help Karen?
[[Yes, I will help]]
[[No, I won't help]]You try to run away but end up slipping and falling into a puddle. Then this bottle with wings, that has something purple inside of it, comes and flies you to land. You look around and see that you are in a completely different place.
The purple thing introduces herself in a muffled tone because she is in a bottle.
"Hello, My name is Karen can you help me? In return I help you..."
Do you Help?
[[Yes, I will help]]
[[No, I won't help]]She says, "Hop on my back, I need to take us to a different location."
[[She flies you to another carriage]]You reply, "No."
Karen doesn't like this, she flies up and squirts sanitiser on you, and she is not pleased.
[[Go back->Approach her]] She takes you to a carriage called Maze Maze.
She says "I am going to go to the end of the maze and I will give you a key to access the next carriage."
Then she flies to the end of the maze.
You enter the maze.
Do you go
[[Right ->Weapons Room]]
[[Left ->Weapons Room]] You perform the routine to Barbara.
Which genre of dance do you choose?
[[Ballet]]
[[Reggae]]Would you rather
[[Perform a pirouette]]
[[Rap Battle]]Would you rather perform
[[Rap Battle]]
[[Offer Barbara a compliment]]You landed a sick burn. You win the crumpet from Barbara. You use the crumpet as a key, the butter seeps through the keyhole and it jams.
[[Ask the locals for help]]
[[Do it yourself, pull harder]]Barbara takes it as an insult, go back.
[[Reggae]] Barbara is not pleased, better luck next time champ.
[[Ballet]] Barbara is not pleased.
[[Rap Battle]]You enter the next carriage and you're in the 80's.
[[8o's]]There are two pathways in the 80's, you must choose where in the carriage you want to go.
[[The Diner]]
[[The Bowling Alley]]You hear the soft tune of an 80's pop star, the smell of the fries is sickening! Someone emerges from behind the counter. It's Karen, a flamingo trapped in a bottle of hand sanitiser. She asks if you want a drink.
[[Yes]]
[[No]]All the lights from the bowling balls come bouncing down the alley, trying to get you. You need to get out.
[[Return to the 80's ->8o's]] You drink your drink, but inside the drink is another key, shaped like a vinyl record.
[[Vinyl record key]][[Do you want any food?]]You gain the ability to perceive the meaning of life, your quest is fulfilled.
[[Start]] You use the key to progress to the next carriage.
[[Next Carriage 1349]]You end up in 1349. The town is made of wood, you see a castle entrance with a moat. You don't know how to swim.
[[Go to the castle]]
[[Go to the village]]You meet Mr Flumpydump, he teaches you how to swim over the moat. When you have learned how to swim, he reveals to you that he is the King.
Do you
[[Bow to the King]]
[[Say hello to him]][[You go to a market stall with a crowd of peasants]]They tell you an urban myth about a king called Arthur with an F.
You realise you need a sword in the shape of a leg.
[[Next Carriage 1349]] You take the turn and see walls full of weapons.
You see a sign, it says, 'Take a weapon, you will need it.'
Which weapons do you choose?
[[Sword and Shield]]
[[Spear and Net]]You chose your weapons and then a hidden door appears and opens up.
You enter the room and hear some neighing.
You look around and find an alicorn.
You get excited and run towards the alicorn. You try to pet it but it attacks you.
You try to stab it with the sword but it flies above and you fail in capturing it.
[[Weapons Room]] You chose your weapons and then a hidden door appears and opens up.
You enter the room and hear some neighing.
You look around and find an alicorn.
You get excited and run towards the alicorn. You try to pet it but it attacks you.
You throw the net at it which hurts its wings, so it can't manage to fly and it gets trapped.
Then you see another door appear and you run towards it.
[[Enter the room]]You find a golden chest with a map of the maze inside of it.
You decide to follow the seemingly endless map going
left
right
right
left
That feels like forever...
You finally reach Karen.
Karen pulls out a key from the sanitiser pump, and says,
"Take this key, you can either open the door and go to the next Carriage or stay in the Maze Maze Carriage."
[[Go to the next carriage ->Neverending Carriage]]
[[Stay in the Maze Maze Carriage]] You get a Leg Scalaber.
Leg Scalaber is the key.
[[Use it as a key ->WW2 carriage]]
[[Take the peasant to the castle]]Barbara is not pleased.
[[Go back ->Go to the castle]] You have arrived in the World War 2 carriage where you see President Slumpidimp and Buldog Chinston Wurchill dancing.
Who do you help?
[[President Slumpidimp]]
[[Buldog Chinston Wurchill]]You enjoyed it.
What now?
Is there is nothing to do?
[[Go back ->Bow to the King]] You should be ashamed!
[[Start over from the beginning ->Start]] Help him! He is so bad at dancing.
[[Help get Barbara to help him dance]]
[[Don't help him learn how to dance.]]Which dance will you teach him?
[[Lindyhop]]
[[Rap battle]]Barbara is not pleased.
[[Start the carriage again ->WW2 carriage]] President Slumpidimp has shown his amazing moustache.
[[Go back ->Help get Barbara to help him dance]] You win instantly and the moustache, which is a toothbrush, is the key.
[[Use wax to get it]]
[[Nudge and ask politely]]You use it as a key and it takes you to the next carriage.
[[Next carriage ->Souls of Clocks Carriage]]It says 'I am a moustache', you idiot.
[[Try again ->Help get Barbara to help him dance]] You enter the Neverending Carriage and you realise that there is nothing here. You realise that you are stuck and trapped forever.
[[You need to go back to the start ->Start]] You decide to stay in the Maze Maze Carriage.
Suddenly a button appears.
You decide to press it and a hidden door appears. You decide to enter and you realise you are in a new carriage.
[[Go through the door ->Woods Carriage]]You look around and you see that you are in the woods.
You start walking through the woods...
Suddenly you fall into a trap and there is a giant lobster there.
[[Try to climb back up]]
[[Talk to the lobster]]You walk into a carriage made of the souls of clocks and gears. When you walk, the gears move quicker; you move quicker if you stand on a gear.
You see two clock golems.
They say to you,
"One of us only tells the truth, one of us tells lies," one clock golem says to the other.
"Not this again Jerry, stop bringing other people into this argument!"
There is a huge clock behind, showing the correct time of 3.42AM.
Do you ask the Golems the time or not?
[[Ask the Golems]]
[[Don't ask the Golems]]Jerry says the time is 3.42am.
Terry says the time is 10.14am.
Who do you believe?
[[Jerry]]
[[Terry]]Go back to the start of the carriage. Barbara is not pleased.
[[Go back ->Souls of Clocks Carriage]] The clock showing the time lifts up to reveal some boxes.
Which box do you choose?
[[The spherical box]]
[[The flat 2D box]]Barbara is not pleased, restart the carriage.
[[Go back ->Souls of Clocks Carriage]] When you open the box, there is no key but King Flumpidump appears to knight you. He says, "Come hither."
[[Go forward]]You see the engine, it looks futuristic. You see space outside the windows.
Do you jump out of the train into space or shut of the engine?
[[Jump into space]]
[[Shut off the engine]]Barbara is not pleased!
[[Go Back ->Go forward]] The train stops, you get off the train.
Barbara is finally pleased and the meaning of life is 42.
The Universe.
The End.You see a clock hand, that is the key.
[[Progress to the engine of the train ->Go forward]] You try to climb back up, but you slip and fall.
[[Woods Carriage]] You talk to the lobster and ask for help to get out of the hole.
It tells you, "Hop onto my back!"
[[And helps you out of the hole]]Once you have escaped the hole, you thank the lobster for its help.
You stand there wondering which way you need to go, it seems like you are lost. So you decide to climb up the tree to see where the exit is.
[[You climb up the tree and look around]]Once you have climbed up the tree, you see a squirrel and a caterpillar.
[[Talk to the Squirrel]]
[[Talk to the Caterpillar]]You go up to the Squirrel and ask it for help. You tell it you're lost and are trying to exit the carriage.
The Squirrel tells you to keep travelling north to reach the engine room.
And it hands you a compass to help you.
[[Take the compass]]You go up to the Caterpillar and ask it for help. You tell it you're lost and are trying to exit the Carriage.
The Caterpillar tells you to keep travelling north to reach the engine.
And it hands you a compass to help you.
[[Take the compass]]You take the compass and get ready to head onto your destination, but you realise you are still on the tree.
Do you
[[Walk down the tree]]
[[Climb down the tree]]You try to walk down the tree and end up falling.
You get up, brush the dirt off yourself, and get ready to move forward
.
[[Use the compass to head north]]You climb down the tree safely and get ready to move forward.
[[Use the compass to head north]] While you are looking at the compass to head north, you walk into a pig.
You look up and apologise.
He introduces himself as Colin.
Do you
[[Walk away and ignore Colin]]
[[Talk to Colin]]You find a door with a sign saying, 'ENGINE ROOM. STAFF ONLY'.
[[You enter the Engine room]]The pig turns around and says, "Hola."
Now there is awkward silence.
...
[[Walk away and ignore Colin]] As soon as you enter, you see wires everywhere on the walls, ceilings, and floors. It looks like the room is just made out of wire.
You see a sign saying, "DO NOT PULL THE RED WIRES."
Do you
[[Pull the wires]]
[[Don't pull the wires]]As soon as you pull the wires, the train screeches to a stop and you feel a sudden jolt.
Suddenly, a door has appears on the wall...
Do you
[[Open it]]
[[Don't open it]]You don't pull the wires and end up staying on the train forever.
[[Start]] It just so happens the train stopped exactly where you need to be.
[[Step off the train]]The door disappears. Now you are stuck on the train forever.
[[Start]] "Let's go home!"
You have escaped the train and you have learned the meaning of the Universe.
PS - The meaning of the universe is 42.
The End.
